Ohio eyes easier path to return to teaching amid shortage
U S Bureau of Labor Statistics shows Ohio faces a growing teacher gap of about 600,000 since January 2000s. Gov. DeWine signed a law to lure former teachers back with a simpler route. House Bill 554, backed by Reps. Lightbody and Bird, would grant temporary two year licenses for those with expired credentials and require six semester hours of CE to upgrade, but lawmakers warn it won’t alone solve the shortage. The Board of Education would issue licenses to temporary holders who meet CE requirements. The measure follows eased substitute teacher rules and echoes a broader national decline in teachers.

Willfulness and ethics in Biden Trump classified documents cases
Noah Feldman argues intent drives prosecutions in the Biden and Trump classified materials cases. He notes willfulness, defined as voluntary and intentional conduct, is key under the Espionage Act. Trump allegedly refused to return 30 plus boxes. Biden promptly handed over discovered documents. The moral framing shapes the legal path and potential charges.
